'24.💐
Refresh and reset.
Hii my love.
2024 is finally here and I'm just soo grateful to God. 2023 was a lot but look at us, we survived.
You guyss, I think I might be too excited for this new year. It's such a weird feeling 'cause normally, I'm not this moved about a new year. I mean, it's a new year, praise Jesus😂 but it feels so different this time around. I've heard and received so many amazing words for this year and I even started the year on a very good note (naira notes, to be precise).🙊
I’m just too happy and eager to experience what God has in store for me this year.🤭
Before we proceed, I hope you've thanked God today?
This new year, I don't want us to underestimate the importance of putting God first in everything we want to do. Like I said in the previous letter, God is the most important piece in our lives and we can't afford to make any decision without Him. This year, always ask God before doing anything, even for things that you think are not so important. This will help you to avoid making mistakes 'cause you can always trust God to help you make the right decisions.
About mistakes, we're humans and humans make mistakes everytime. However, it'll be very bad for us to let our mistakes from last year hold us back this year. So, my love, as you journey through this year, make use of the lessons you learnt from your mistakes last year but don't let guilt hold you back. After all, we already started this year on a clean slate.
Isaiah 43:18-19a NIV
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
While most people are saying they no longer make new year resolutions because of reasons best known to them, I'm sure some of us have already listed out our goals for this year, which are probably bigger than last year's goals. It's very important for us to know that, to achieve this year's goal, we have to do better than we did last year.
If you want to experience financial freedom than you did last year, you have to work more on your spending habits. You want to hear God more, add more time to your hours of prayer and bible study. What I'm just trying to say here is for you to achieve that goal, you need to put in moreeeee effort!
Also, if you're trusting God for something this year, make sure you really have what it takes for you to maintain it when He gives it to you. I'm not sure any parent would use their money to buy an expensive phone for a child that is very careless. Even if they would, they'll think about it like ten times and I don't think it will be nice for God to give you a good partner, for example, only for you to chase him/her with your bad character. Ergo, this year, drop that your bad character/habit and improve yourself. Don't waste God's gifts.
Lastly, that goal that you plan on achieving this year, start working on it NOW. You want to have 100k in your bank account at the end of the year, start saving now. You want your C.G.P.A to increase at the end of the year, start reading now. Start reading your Bible now, starting praying now, start drinking water now. Don't let procrastination rob you of that goal! No gree oh!
P.O.V: you're receiving the rewards of your hard work this year.😍
I really hope that this new year, we'll maximize our potentials fully with help from God and we'll do great things with ease!❤️ Don't underestimate yourself this year, only God is greater than you!💪🏾
Happy new year, fam!💕 Our letters will be sent out on Saturdays from now on, so expect another letter on Saturday.
I'm sooo excited, I hope you are too.🌚
*The purpose of this letter is not to put unnecessary pressure on us but to help us experience a better year than the last.
*Don't let the fear of making mistakes stop you from doing great things. Trust God to lead you.
*Trusting God is strength, because in grabbing His hands and admitting your own weakness, power will come to you above your desire and equal to your need.In 2024, Trust God!
*Let me gist you small, guys. I'm a very messy person and I'm not that organized. Guess what I did yesterday? I made something like a brochure for this year, yeah? Like, I planned this year under various sections and it looks so so cute. I'm so proud of myself, mehhn. I just hope I'm able to follow this thing.😭😂
*I've read this letter over 5 times and it sounds so serious, doesn't it?😂
Thank youuuuuuuuu ❤️💜
